I just pulled the trigger on a TB Performance Traction bar...mainly for the following advertised perks:

-Reduced torque steer and wheel hop
-Reduced vibrations from aftermarket motor mounts​

This car is my daily, and my aftermarket motor mount setup is harsh.

My question is, has anyone experienced more, less, or the same in NVH with front shock tower brace?

First off, you need to clarify if you're installing a traction bar or a strut tower brace, they're both different. Assuming you're getting a traction bar, I would say that NVH is about the same. I have a Steeda RMM with the harder bushing installed and there's no apparent difference with the bar on or off from my experience. Having said that, what you do benefit from it is a more direct and responsive steering feel which out weights not getting rid of NVH. I daily my car too and I'm pretty used to the NVH by now, it's just something you live with. Torque steer is pretty much the same btw with the bar.

What is NVH?

What is NVH?

@galaxy7

NVH=Noice, Vibration, Harshness

You won't notice a difference in vibration. What the traction bar does is it eliminates or reduces deflection in the a-arms which causes torque steer and wheel hop.
